The talentless sect master chosen by the system Chapter 26: Chapter 26 Unexpected surrender

Nightin told Lucifer "Escort me to the battlefield right now, there's not a single second to waste!"

Lucifer chuckled as he replied "There's no need to, I'll be able to get them to stop the battle immediately and retreat from here."

As Lucifer was speaking,a purple ring formed above his head which he used to relay the message of retreat to all the demon beasts.

"Roar!"

Lucifer summoned out his pet dragon and jumped onto its back as Nightin looked at it in amazement.

The dragon had razor sharp claws and its purple scales seems to be radiating off light;not only that, it's actually about a hundred metres big in size while its wings spanned for tens of metres.

Lucifer chuckled as he told Nightin "Hop on young lad, I'll bring you to the battlefield right now. As for meeting up, we'll meet again one day in the near future,probably in the upper realm by then."

Nightin hopped on and the dragon took off in a flash,in just a few moments time,they actually arrived at the battlefield. A distance which would have taken Nightin close to a day even when he's travelling at his fastest speed.

Before Nightin left,Lucifer took out a bottle of Demon Emperor blood and passed it over to Nightin as he said "You can have this and present in to the city lord, I'm sure that he'll be willing to greatly reward you."

Nightin hopped off while saying goodbye as he shouted towards the majority who was still in a frenzy and chasing the demon beasts,not realising that they are already retreating away from the battlefield.

"Everyone, we've won! The demon beasts are retreating!"

Hearing this,everyone stopped their footsteps as they looked at the demon beasts who had run away,never had they expect the demon beast invasion this time to have ended this quickly. Not only that, they only suffered minimal casualties this time,the least number of casualties in their history of defence.

Everyone started to cheer in joy as the commander of the army walked up to Nightin slowly,his body was covered in blood,yet it doesn't hide his ferociousness. Something that only comes by from countless battles on the battlefield and making it out alive every single time.

"You must be the sect mast of Nirvana sect,am I right to say so? I'm the commander of the defending army this time and if possible,I would like to make friends with you." The commander approached for a handshake as he tilted his head towards the Azure Dragons and Lancelot's group.

Nightin smiled back as he made a handshake with the commander while replying "Yes,I am the sect master of the Nirvana sect. As for becoming friends, I'm totally fine with that,as for how deep the friendship goes,it depends on you."

The commander opened his mouth to speak up only to get interjected by a man's voice from far "Sect master, you're finally here?"

The person who approached was Alexander and his whole army behind him,in this battle,they covered for each other and stayed safe throughout without anyone suffering heavy injuries or death.

Nightin patted Alexander's shoulder as he told him "Keep up the good work,this is only the beginning of everything, there's still a long path ahead of us."

"Sect master!"

Lancelot shouted out as the group moved towards Nightin,it may only have been a short time of separation, yet it felt like a long period of time. Nightin was the one who gave them a chance to rise up and leave the group which always stays behind.

Nightin gave them a feeble smile as he got them to return to the Nirvana sect first "Lancelot, you'll bring the rest back first,I have some matters to attend to."

Lancelot accepted the order as the group including the Azure Dragons started to to return to the Nirvana sect.

On the way, there were countless people throwing praises and cheers at them,for being their savior.

Nightin looked at the commander as he whispered into his ears "What can the city give me in exchange for the blood of a Demon Emperor."

The commander froze as he replied with a poker face "I'm not sure about that as well,why don't you follow me to meet the city lord first, I'm sure that he'll be glad to see the legendary Nirvana sect,sect master."

Nightin nodded as he followed the commander towards the city lord's residence,on the way,many people were feelings joys of sadness. Though they have won this time,many parents have lost their child to the werewolves mutated demon beasts.

The commander kept his sword in as he told Nightin "This is the cruel reality of the world,wherever we go,deaths are everywhere in the cultivation world. Many people think that we cultivators of the good path are defending them for the sake of it. Never will they know that most of us are just doing it for the rewards."

Nightin replied as he sighed,looking at the mortals around him "While the evil path may always be doing merciless and cruel stuff,the same applies to us of the good path as well,we can deceive others,but definitely not ourselves."

Before long,they arrived at the city lord's residence,protecting the gate were four guards at the martial master realm.

The commander took out a token as he said "I'm the commander of the defending army of the Breezy city,I request for a audience with the city lord."

The guards stepped aside as one of them volunteered to lead the way to the city lord who is currently at the garden managing his plants and flowers which she has grown by herself. As guards of the city lord residence, there's no way that they won't be able to identify the token of the defending commander of this city.

While the commander appeared pretty calm,Nightin was shocked when he saw the city lord. It wasn't a old man or a man in his seniors who is tending to the flowers,but a pretty woman who was probably only around his age.

Her silky white hair flowed down one side of her shoulder while the rest remained behind,her skin seems to be whiter than snow,just by standing there,she gives off the feeling of grace and elegance without the intend to do so.

Nightin looked at her as she smiled back while being the one to initiate the conversation which saved Nightin from his awkward situation "Hello,The name's Charlotte Snow,nice to meet you."

Nightin tried to replied,only to realise that he's stuttering "Nice to meet you, I. I'm."

Charlotte laughed at Nightin's stuttering,when she smiled,time seemed to froze as the only scene that Nightin could see in front of him was Charlotte and her only.
